Bust of ConstantineProtection of Christians from Jews; Synagogues

We want the Jews, their principals, and their patriarchs informed, that if anyone―once this law has been given―dare attack by stoning or by other kind of fury one escaping from their deadly group and raising his eyes to God’s cult [Christianity], which as we have learned is being done now, he shall be delivered immediately to the flames and burnt with his associates. But if one of the people [a Christian] shall approach their nefarious sect and join himself to their conventicles [synagogues], he shall suffer with them the deserved punishments.
